Overview

With a sturdy toggle clamp to secure your stock to the jig, and a large frontal clamping recess for securing the jig to the bench, you'll get perfect alignment every time. Thanks to the removable drill guide and portable base, you have the option of taking the jig to large work pieces and awkward locations or slipping it in your pocket for work on the job site. The material support stop guarantees perfect repeatability time after time, and the dust collection shroud aids in chip expulsion for faster, cleaner drilling. Adjustable for 1/2" to 1-1/2" thick stock in 1/8" incremental settings.

BEST ANSWER:This is a small, but very useful "hand tool," and the only "dust" generated is the thin spiral that follows the drill bit twist. One might get a small pile of shavings after a while, but barely enough to brush away once or twice.

I used this on one small project so far and it works like a charm. It didn't take long to figure it out and did a nice jib. Obviously, one could do jobs without using this jig set, but this thing saves time and the end result is very good! The screws in the set don't go very far, so if buying one and you have a job in mind, get additional screw for the wood you'll be using, unless you are just a couple of blocks from the store, I'm not!

I would recommend this jig. Works great and a real time saver when building cabinets. I especially like the front clamp which made it much easier to work with some large panels for garage cabinets. Quality seems great, with a well thought out set of features such as the storage compartments and the depth gage. My first pocket hole jig so can not compare to others.

It was quite an easy process to learn how to use this system. The teaching aids are well done. I wish there were a "screwdriver handle" type tool included so that you could do a final hand tightening of each screw.

Seldom does a product work exactly as described- this one does.It has solved a host of joinery problems I have had over the years that kept me from making or doing dozens of things around the house. Watch the Kreg videos and follow the directions, especially about clamping things tightly so that screws don't pull the pieces out of place. The videos also show off the versatility of he system. You can use it almost anywhere for construction or repair.It is as easy and it works as well as they say. I wish I had discovered it a long time ago.

This is a very good joining system. It is easy to use and makes quick work of joining boards. It is no replacement for mortise and tenon joints were high strength is required, but it is suitable for many situations.

This is a FANTASTIC tool! My only problem was that the drill bit that came with it broke almost immediately. I had another one from my original smaller portable Kreg so it was not really an issue. I would absolutely recommend this tool to any woodworker...hobbyist or pro. A must-have!

I can't believe how easy and fast this tool is to use! The joints produced are amazingly strong for just a couple of screws. I've been making window casings and get them done in less than half the time then my fellow employees. Best tool I've purchased in many years!

This is one of those tools that you will find a dozen uses for once you finish the project you bought it for. For this reason, I am glad I purchased the complete kit and would recommended this kit to anyone considering the Kreg tool.

Kreg did it again, this pocket hole kit is awesome. It's really easy to use both with the clamp base and with the portable guide. Setting up the hole depth is super easy with easy to read markings on the parts. Ever since I started using this jig my biscuit joiner rarely sees the light of day anymore.

My 12 yr. old son recently needed a puppet theater to present a show for his science class.Using the K4MS my son drilled over 200 pockets and drove every screw to complete the frame for a 4ft. widex 5 1/2 ft. tall by 15 inch deep Puppet Theater.Together we were proud to donate it to his school.Now they can put on a puppet show any time the kidswant.Proud Dad

After years of using a metal block with a 5/16 hole drilled at 15 degrees & using a C Clamp I was able to almost get the hole in the right place. with this Kreg Jig K4MS I am able to get it right every time in about 1/4 the time. I used it first to repair a chair and the results were a strong joint without a load of clamps. I am looking forward to my next project. No shop should be without this tool.

I had been looking at this product for quiet awhile and when it went on sale, I thought I would try it...This jig is everything it says it is...It is first class quality all the way...Everything fits so presice and is well constructed..I also purchased the Kregbench clamp system and it is well worth the money.

Excellent quality. Highly recommended. My wife and I used the pocket hole system to build our first solid wood furniture cabinet under flat screen TV. It could not be easier to use but here are some hints:1 Read the paper instructions inside the DVD packet. It's much quicker than navigating the DVD.2 Proper set-up is required or the tip of your drill will run into the base of the jig. See item 1.3 Plan on mounting this jig to something more stable as it requires multiple hands when using large work pieces.4 Use coarse thread screws for soft wood #8 x 1-1/4&quot; long for 3/4&quot; thick boards

I think I have every pocket hole clamp and accessory Kreg makes and have had a great deal of fun using them. I was excited when I first saw it on the New Yankee workshop and rushed out to get one. I have over the years built several projects with the jig and have loved every minute. However that being said there are a couple of things the new user should be aware of. 1. If you use glue on your projects be aware it not only serves to strengthen the project, In the beginning it will act as a lubricant and make getting your joints flush Difficult. 2. If your want perfect joints clamp, clamp ,clamp. The force of the screws WILL force the piece out of alignment. Beyond that get one of these and build your little heart out !

I've been wanting to buy one of these for a while, and finally did for a present project. Excellent tool, very sturdy and durable. However, I'm still trying to figure out what some of the parts do, and as such, the instructions and video could be more detailed. Ken Woelfer

I first used this kit while adding framing to the metal building that is now my woodworking shop. The pocket holes and screws allowed me to add intermediate frame members safely and accurately. Next, I will us it to build my storage cabinets. It is an excellent system.

I have never in my life had a tool Kreg Jig K4 Master System or equipment that I love this much. Once I removed everything from the box, did a little reading, I started using the system without any problems. I must say this was/is the greatest buy I have ever made.

I have considered buying the Kreg pocket jig for a long time and finally deceided to order one. When I received the K4 Master System, I read the instructions, and watched the enclosed video. The first time I used it the results were outstanding. It is easy to set up and even easier to use. I've used biscuits and dowels in the past but nothing is easer or produces the results that I've achieved with the K4 right from the box. Great tool.

I have been eyeing this kit for a long time. I decided to purchase it to assist with the building of magazine rack lamp stand for Christmas gift. I used it on the face frame and it was amazing how solid it is. No gaps in the joints, it pulled everything tight. This saved a lot of time and now has me thinking that I will use it to complete more of the assemble which remains.

This is a great tool! I use it all the time and it really helps putting wood together fast and strong. It saves me so much time and wish I would have purchased one years ago. Buy the big set and you won't be sorry.

I restored an antique Library Table that belonged to my wife's great grandmother. The table is well over 100 years old. The table top had to be replaced. Using the Kreg System enabled me to fasten the table skirt back to the new top and made it look like a professional job.After watching a demonstration of the Kreg system I knew that's what I wanted to use to join the skirt to the new top.Easy to use, storage case makes it easy to keep track of all parts and store in my workshop. Yes, I would recommend this product, well worth the money spent.

I have been seeing this tool advertised and just really did not need one UNTIL my daughter-in-law wanted me to build a vanity for my granddaughter for her 4th birthday. The K3 made short work on fastening all parts together, even the mirror frame. I highly recommend this tool and especially for anyone who does any kind of furniture type woodworking.

Kreg k4 jig is real easy to setup and use. I started making things right out of the box. I would like to add one of those shop made desks for it , so long pieces would be easier, but until then this is best gift my wife ever bought me.
